Quail eggs / Huevos de codorniz



What a surprise! look what we have found...
Que sorpresa, mirad lo que hemos encontrado...


Today we have been clearing all the weeds around our bamboo plants. Whilst we were doing this we found a quail's nest in the ground. The mother Quail abandoned the nest leaving 10 eggs still warm. We have decided to take them and put them in our chicken house, and one of our hens has adopted them. She is now sitting on top of them and hatching them (we hope!).
We are now researching how to feed the babies if we are lucky enough to hatch them with their surrogate mother hen. We will keep you all posted!

Hoy estabamos limpiando todas las malas hierbas de nuestros bamboos y hemos encontrado un nido de codorniz en el suelo. La mama codorniz lo ha abandonado y aun estaba caliente. Al final hemos decidido probar con nuestras gallinas y una vez colocados en el gallinero, una de ellas los ha adoptado. Ahora , sentada encima los está incubando (espero!). Estamos buscando información de como alimentarlos si su nueva mama gallina los salva. Os mantendremos informados!
